Naval Academy Affairs.

The board Of visitors to the Naval
Academy have made their report to the
Secretary of the Navy. They find high
state of efficiency prevailing in the various
departments, and are well satisfied with
what they saw during their visit. The
board endorsed the recommendation made
by their predecessors. that cadets should
graduate at the end of their four years
course, and be admitted into the Navy or
discharged without undergoing a two
years, cruise. They recommend that the
new Marine barracks be Immediately re-
paired to prevent further injury from
their imperfect foundation. 4 similar re-
commentator is made for the new cadet
quarters, the foundation Of which is also
found 70 be imperfect The Hospital
building on the farm, they suggest, should
be repaired and used as quarters of such
officers and instructors of the Academy as
are not provided for within the walls.
The board also recommend the purchase
OF the five acres of ground owned 10y the
city gas company and other private per-
sons. Other recommendations are made
rendering TO the efficiency and conven-
fence OF the Academy, and the report con-
cludes with the expression of 1.-THE salts

ministration and of jealous attention to
